It is "common sense" for Christianity to be sidelined at the expense of Islam, a Government minister claimed on Sunday.
Hazel Blears, the Communities Secretary, defended Labour’s policy on religion after a report backed by the Church of England claimed that Muslims receive a disproportionate amount of attention.

She said it was right that more money and effort was spent on Islam than Christianity because of the threat from extremism and home-grown terrorism.

Ms Blears told BBC Radio 4’s Sunday programme: “That’s just common sense. If we’ve got an issue where we have to build resilience of young Muslim men and women to withstand an extremist message.â€

This should not surprise anyone, that liberal EU nations are doing all they can to marginalize Christianity, and exhort something backwards to what almost all hold dear and precious, freedom of speech and freedom of ones own thoughts, which so far as many have seen, Islam does not allow for either.

However Malaysia’s Prime Minister warned yesterday that Muslim extremism in Britain will grow unless the Government and society learn to understand Islam.

Isn't it customary for the 'guest' to adopt to the 'host'?

Laying the blame on Christians is pure propoganda--are the Islams learning to understand Christianity?

Two quotes:

It is quite insulting and patronizing to immigrate to a country and expect it to adapt to the very things one left behind. This is the behavior of a conqueror, not an immigrant."
Thomas Lifson

"By definition, an immigrant asks for the privilege of being allowed to live in a country not his or her own. Immigrants have no right to demand change. No more than I have a right to barge into your house and demand you rearrange the furniture, knock out the wall between the kitchen and family room, and paint the parlor walls a different color." Thomas Lifson

MyAmerica, good quotes, those should be use often, and everywhere.

Thank you AE--was lucky to find them.

It certainly applies to many new immigrants, and illegals these days.
